  13. Crop Condition & Yield Prospects • Based on the (LSWI & NDVI) and (Rainfall & Rainydays) composite index is developed to assess crop condition and crop yield. • Deviations are calculated taking 2017-18 as a base year 1. Normal -Similar to that of 2017-18 2. Mild -Crop condition is slightly poor compared to 2017-18. (About10-20% reduction in crop sown area or crop yield or both are expected) 3. Moderate- Crop condition is poor compared to 2017-18. (About 20-30%reduction in crop sown area or crop yield or both are expected). 4. Moderate to Severe - Crop condition is significantly poor compared to2017-18. (More than 30% reduction in crop sown area or crop yield or bothare expected)Disclaimer: The drought impact classes are indicative in nature. More detailedanalysis is to be carried-out to validate and improve the methodology. NDVI_LSWI_Rainfall_Rainydays Matrix
